Marriage is not going good. I was hoping that from venus md it will improve but don’t see any signs.

Married in 2022 dec. Spouse is extremely impractical and live in fantasy. She hates dogs. And anything which is opposite to calm. Hot headed extremely reactive

39M 34F. Partner of 18 months says unless I propose with a 40k real diamond, don't propose at all?

Maybe it depends on where you live but 3ct isn’t particularly large or impractical if set correctly. Mine is 3ct and definitely gorgeous but not flashy by any means.

Congratulations. Your husband finds you attractive and sexy. I get that wearing those sexy clothes while doing housework and toddler care is impractical. Get some lingerie and wear it into the bedroom…

Maybe put up some candles for sex? Wear some nice, impractical clothes before? You don't need to do this the whole day to get his attention.

I’m going to echo/emphasize what a lot of people are saying, which is that you need to work on your self esteem. If your own body is such a turn off to you that you need to have sex with the lights of…

You're right. I was hurt and acted out of anger. I felt like he was asking for something so impractical and selfish that my feelings were hurt

I love this idea. Don’t go for impractical lace camis and bloomers that make you feel odd and uncomfortable. But maybe chose items and outfits that make you feel extra beautiful. I’ll wear tight tank …

I get not wanting to wear things you don't feel comfortable in. I also think this was a pretty brutal bait and switch to pull on your husband. He's trying to connect with you and spice up what sounds …

You have to start with the proposal. He wanted her to wear the revealing clothes -- she doesn't and wants to wear frumpy ones. She tried them on to prove it's impractical and he completely backed off.…

Maybe I'm an outlier here (41M), but my wife could be wearing a trash bag and I would still find her sexy. She's the most beautiful woman in the world to me. With that said, I love to see her. I lo…

Many many women require the entire day to be turned on as well. I believe most men who dismiss their wives and call it "impractical" would be labeled as sexist.

My boyfriend (23M) keeps asking me (23F) to change how I dress because of other men, and I don’t know how to handle it.

Men truly don’t get it. As women we’ve spent years undoing the sexualization of our bodies to get comfortable dressing however we feel without worried about getting started at. And despite this, peopl…

Play time clothes don’t have to be lingerie. It can be whatever they both find sexy. She’s saying it’s impractical to wear revealing stuff day to day. But how about some evenings?

Why is it impractical with kids. I don’t have kids yet, but why wouldn’t shorts be viable with kids?

I (F24) cannot sleep when I’m with my boyfriend (M29) because he snores. Fellow people who bear through this pain, or people who snore, help!!!!

Having separate rooms is a game changer! I hate the old trope that separate rooms means you’re on the down spiral. Getting enough REM sleep to meet your needs works wonders for your relationship and i…
